I just don't think that way. Can't help it. I love that I can look at the image just after shooting to get a vague idea if I've been successful, my problem in shooting is being able to hold the camera steady enough for the light conditions I'm working in :) If I don't get it right to my way of thinking, no one else is gonna see it. and if I have to mess with it too much in photoshop, well - it just goes in the trash. I'm a ruthless editor of my own work... though I certainly miss the mark often enough anyway. ann, the anti-post processor
